When it's built with gtk3, firefox plugin-container will use some
LD_PRELOAD hack in order to be able to load the gtk2 flash plugin.
However, this LD_PRELOAD'ed .so will cause gtk3 remote-viewer to crash
when it's started by spice-xpi
This commit just cleans up the unwanted LD_PRELOAD variable from the
environment before starting remote-viewer.
